This is supposed to be the summer isn’t it? So what’s with all the rain? I’m going to go for something downtempo, funky and sax-ridden to pretend that it’s glorious sunshine. Thanks to Sharif D, you can do the same too, if you wish.

Blurb:

Respect Music Records would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to our latest Label mate the very talented Sharif D. Sharif is a multi instrumentalist and producer based in Brisbane Australia. His sounds resonate with influences of disco, funk, soul and lounge and we are very excited to have him onboard. His first release with Respect Music Records goes by the title of “Hearts & Hormones” and is a slow burning deep house groove sprinkled with his trademark Sax sounds which lead the track to its climax.

This release is accompanied by a string of diverse remixes by the likes of Teddy Black, Sean Murray, De La Roche and Cutloose, all of which open the release into different niche markets. Firstly we have a deeper disco lounge vibe offered by Sean Murray followed by an uplifting Disco House feel courtesy of De La Roche. Teddy Black brings that Big Room Garage sound he is becoming known for, whilst Cutloose drops a bomb with his remix which breaks down the door into the realm of Glitch Hop and Breaks.

Then to top off the release, Sharif has offered us a nice chill out track titled “Old Boots” which is reminiscent of some of Groove Armada’s earlier material, making RMR004 a very well rounded release with a bit of something for everyone.
